The businessman Jaume Saltó has been re-elected, this Wednesday, president of the Chamber of Commerce of Lleida for another four years.
His candidacy was the only one presented at the plenary session that was held this Wednesday and he obtained the support of 34 of the 35 members who attended the vote. The remaining vote was blank, there was also one of the 36 members that make up the plenary session who excused his attendance.
Saltó has been "very happy" to be able to lead a second and final term, and has explained that the candidacy is "continuous" with some new features.
Among the new challenges is addressing innovation jointly with research centers, universities and the business world, and directing the sector towards bioeconomy strategies.
Saltó, who has presided over the institution since 2019, has expressed his gratitude for the trust that the plenary session has given him to continue leading the entity in what will be his second and last term, since the chamber's mandates are limited to two. As for the executive committee that accompanies Jaume Saltó, there are names that repeat, although younger profiles are also incorporated "to address the concerns of the younger business world," indicated Saltó.
In addition to Saltó, Manel Llaràs repeats as first vice president. Pompili Roiger enters the second vice-presidency, Marc Ceron, the third vice-presidency and Carles Rusiñol, joins as treasurer. The vocalists are Jordi Azlor, Xavier Batalla, Josep Castellarnau, Josep Maria Gardenyes, Meritxell Pi, Jordi Rull and Jesús Torrelles.
